Re: Only old boards have badcaps....Right?
That's baaaddd...
I'm surprised that there's still some mobo manufacturer use GSC caps. And about Asus, shame on them! Abit or albatron is free from bad caps now.. with lower price tag and higher quality of mobos..
[/RANT]days are so short when you actually do something..Comment

Re: Only old boards have badcaps....Right?
How's the quality of OST? Have some on my ECS board along with United Chemi-Con and Matsushita.Comment

Re: Only old boards have badcaps....Right?
If they are in the power section you may want to consider replacing them, I have them on my PCChips M848 too... Generally regarded as junk.Ya'll think us folk from the country's real funny-like, dontcha?

Re: Only old boards have badcaps....Right?
I also have an ECS (K7S5A) whose CPU VRM caps are 100% OST. None have popped in this case, despite prolonged use of brutally high Vcore and CPU power consumption. Then again, OSTs in such locations have very often failed, too often to be simply due to "the odd bad batch" or such.Originally posted by furballi
Basically, they're not the absolute worst, like Chhsi, but they're not that much better either. Mediocre, one could say, perhaps comparable to fuhjyyu.
...
PS. Perhaps we could even have something of a "star" rating system
for electrolytic cap brands... something like:
5 stars: Rubycon, UCC, Sanyo (Almost never bad)
4 stars: Nichicon, Taicon (only very rarely bad)
3 stars: Teapo and such
2 stars: Fuhjyyu, OST
1 stars: for those already-popped-before-use brands, like Chhsi, TMS, Glory Smooth Company...Last edited by tiresias; 04-04-2006, 05:46 PM.Comment

Re: Only old boards have badcaps....Right?
I take it you have a K7S5A Pro then... I had one, wish I kept it..
PS, I'm a moderator at two K7S5A forums.. lolYa'll think us folk from the country's real funny-like, dontcha?

Absolutely, revision 5.0 "Pro" edition - you've got some impressive knowledge of the motherboard-to-cap relationships there!Originally posted by MD Willington
Alas, it's not really in meaningful use anymore - it's part of the "spare" machine that I put together a while back from all the old unused 'junk' I had amassed.
My "personal" machine is built around a Tyan S2865, which I, of course, couldn't resist buying when I saw all those Rubycon caps it bore

How did Nichicon earn the four stars?
All troubles I've had with ASUS boards are related to them...
I've been lucky though, this is the first time they have failed after the warranty has expired

Re: Only old boards have badcaps....Right?
BP-OMowe, it was only their HM/HN models and only for part of 2002 and 2003, if I remember correctly. (They were overfilled with electolyte I think.) However, large quantities of caps from that batch went out and caused many problems in various machines. I have two Intel boards with them, one of which is OK (but I'm watching it), in fact. The largest, most known failure was probably in Dell OptiPlex GX270s like the one above.You know there's something wrong when you open up a PSU and are glad to find Teapos.
Why I don't buy cheap cases!

I have three identical-spec 820-01700 boards (2.6/32/512), and ALL THREE boards came to us with the same fault, from different sources: The boards don't wake from hibernation with the keyboard or lid, they ONLY wake when you press the power button. I understand this is a very minor issue, but the boards must be fixed!
We will of course begin with the obvious (checking lid signals), but I couldn't help but notice these three boards were all 32GB variants. Has anyone noticed an issue relating to these 32GB boards in particular? I of course don't think it's a RAM issue, but it's bizarre... -
We've now created a stack of 10 boards that have the same issue, which we suspect to be CPU-related. The issue is very simple--the board will not boot to anything, only showing the exclamatory sign inside a circle. No amount of DFU/restore, wipe/erase, etc, will resolve the issue. No boards have physical damage. We went ahead and replaced the SSD nands on two boards (one 02020, one 02016) and the issue remained exactly the same. We are considering replacing the CPU on one of the boards using a locked CPU, just so we can see if it resolves the issue.
Has anyone else run into this... -
I'm looking to upgrade several 8GB 820-00850 boards to 16GB or 32GB for personal use. I am curious what the best practice and process is for sourcing new replacement chips, and what vendor(s) you guys prefer? Another question is, how do I find compatible chips and their corresponding part/model numbers? For example, in the 820-00850 schematic, the DDR chip U2600 model listed (EDFB232A1MA) corresponds to 1x32GB chip. Of course, I would need 4x8GB chips to replace the 4x2GB chips currently on the board. How do I find compatible 8GB chips? Is it as simple as searching "BGA178 8GB 2133"...

I have here a Magnum IA.100 which belongs to my parents.
The unit powers on & when the relay kicks in, you get a pop from the speakers (this might sound weird but is usual behavior for this amp). However, you get nothing coming through it from any of the inputs & no pops and crackls from any of the controls.
Because of the sound from the speaker when the amp turns on I have assumed that the output section probably works but I could be wrong & I'm not sure how to test that side of things further.

Hi friends, last week I got 3 same boards for repair (NM-D562 Rev. 3.0), same problem, power button light up, but motherboard wont start.
3,3V_alw and 5V_alw, 1,8V_alw and 0,75V_alw presented on all 3 boards, no other voltages. 1,2V missing and if I checked schematic right, I need 1,2V and than can be +3VS and +5VS generated after getting SUSP_N signal from KBC? or vise versa?
I checked for low resistance on coils, no low resistance.
Anyone with same issue like me?
Thanks for any help.
